Abstract
Using a single offset of the GPR technique, the soil moisture content in the study areas has been satisfactorily characterized. The average water content of selected soils in the Central region of Cross-River State ranges from 0.24m3m-3 to 0.35m3m-3. The majority of the soil in the research area is loamy soil, which has little sand and silt particles, claims the study. The majority of loamy soil is made up of sand, silt, and a small amount of clay. When dry, loamy soil has the consistency of concrete and when wet, it turns into a sticky mess. The majority of plants and vegetables can be grown on loam soil rather than other types of soil. Since loam contains almost equal amounts of all three of these components, it is the best type of soil. In conclusion, some of the Central Cross River State's soils would be suitable for farming.
